Decorating Disaster

So, we’re in our new apartment! Yay! This is why I haven’t posted anything in forever. I’ve been organizing, cleaning, stocking, and decorating. . . I’ve never decorated anything in my life. In college my roommates always made fun of me and said my room looked like a boy’s room. My Mom and Nana both like to decorate and I’ve grown up watching them and that’s really all I know. I guess I should watch more HGTV. Anyway, so in an attempt to make our new apartment feel a bit more like home and not a cold white box, I’ve been decorating. . . I actually bought some toilet lid covers at Wal-Mart. You know those rug-like covers that make your toilet look like it’s wearing a hat. Once I put the cover on the toilet I realized it looked ridiculous and nobody has used those for at least 15 years. Whoops! Needless to say, I returned it. I have a few decorating goals: 1 – I want to create something to hang on the wall in place of a headboard and 2 – I want to find a cute welcome mat. Haha. Ya, that’s it for now. We’ll see if I can accomplish these goals. In conclusion, if anyone has any good decorating tips for making an apartment warmer and more homey, they would be greatly appreciated.

  1. I love your blog, Kamille! I can't believe how much Gracy has grown. Check this out for some headboard ideas http://www.hgtv.com/topics/headboards/index.html

    I made one for our guest room out of posterboards, quilt batting and packing tape, covered with pretty fabric. It cost less than $30 and is still intact over a year later :) Have fun with your new apartment!
